What up, Skjor?!

Post » Sun May 18, 2014 4:06 am

I was just at the end of my salmon fishing for Salmon Roe and I heard an arrow whiz over my head. I thought to myself, "What on Nirn could that have been?" (As I was in the far remote northeast past Windhelm). As I surfaced in the water to look around, I saw none other than a mammoth being put to the sword by Njada Stonearm and Aela the Huntress. At this point in my story, you must know that I have completed the Companion's questline and am now Harbinger. Knowing this, you can understand my surprise at seeing Skjor among my fellow Shield-Siblings. But it was not Skjor as I remember him. He was little more than a torso and a mangled arm sticking straight out of the ground "running" around faster than I could even sprint. To make matters more strange than they already were, once I finally caught the halfling (hehe, get it?), I was shocked to find that I was fully able to converse with my dead Shield-Brother. Has anyone else come across this bug? I'm not sure if I'm joyed at Skjor's return or disgusted at this bug that is now on my favorite main character.

Many people have encountered Skjor hanging out at Jorvaskr after completing the questline. Your particular version of this oddity, however, is new to me.

He keeps re-spawning for my characters in Jorrvaskr. I try not to interact with him... could cause some glitches. Gets really creepy when I overhear Ria ask Aela if she and Skjor are sleeping together.

I hope not. Aela is my character's wife and Skjor is dead! So I make Skjor dead once more.

I never hear that conversation. Could perhaps tell me they say exactly?

On topic, I enjoy his quests. I like hunting down criminals.

I may not have the exact conversation but its something like this

"Is it true what I hear about you and Skjor?"

"For the sake of your ears you better hope not."

"Why, is it forbidden?"

"It is not but there is nothing going on between me and Skjor."

Aela's tone makes it sound like there was. Might explain why I always find him in her room or why he is the only one with a double bed besides Kodlak...

Last time I heard them talking I was outside Jorrvaskr with my bosmer (not married to Aela) and Ria asked Aela this with Skjor standing nearby.
